But just removed these two for the time being.       ---        Amessyroom       toolazy.synchro.net:2323 (telnet)       ---        þ Synchronet þ Too Lazy BBS - toolazy.synchro.net:2323        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187 129/14 153/757 7715       SEEN-BY: 154/10 30 110 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114 229/110       SEEN-BY: 229/206 317 400 426 428 550 700 705 240/1120 5832 263/1 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 5006 291/111 292/8125 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 341/66 234 342/200 396/45 423/120 460/58 256 1124 467/888       SEEN-BY: 633/280 712/848 770/1 902/26 5020/400 8912 5054/30 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
